   In a medium sized bowl, whisk the eggs until foamy; set aside.

7. 7

   In a medium saucepan, heat milk and butter over low heat until butter melts; remove from heat.

8. 8

   Add dry ingredients and vanilla to milk and stir until sugar dissolves.

9. 9

   Very slowly, pour the milk into the eggs while constantly stirring, as to avoid curdling the eggs.

10. 10

    Pour over bread cubes.

11. 11

    Let sit for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, so the bread can become soaked.

12. 12

    Bake for 60 minutes or until the sides get brown and begin to pull slightly away from pan.

13. 13

    Let cool slightly.

14. 14

    This pudding is very sweet and doesn't need a topping but, if desired, top with whipped cream, ice cream or one of the many great toppings or sauces found here on Zaar.
